My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Landscaping

Hi. I have this beautiful turquoise pool. I'm just stuck in what kind of landscaping I should do? Thanks in advance!

    You should not choose plants/trees that drop leaves, bark, flowers or fruit. Don't use loose gravel or pine bark that can get in the pool either.

    Just place some comfortable chairs beside the pool along with small plants. This will bring out the pool much more.

    You have a beautiful pool - add some fire to your design. Ethanol fireplaces require no gas line or electricity so you can install one anywhere. Water & Fire together is stunning. Check out more at http://www.ethanolfireplacepros.com/freestanding.html
